When looking for first Holy Communion dresses, you may be overwhelmed with all the choices that are available. But the process can be easier and more fun when you do some planning. Get some ideas as to the type of style of dress you want to get and also the kind of fabric you prefer the dress to be made of. Look in stores or online to see what you and your daughter like and then go from there. Deciding on the perfect dress for your little girl will be a special memory.

The first thing to do is check with the church to see if there are any restrictions or rules for what kind of dresses can be worn. They may request all dresses to be the same length or a certain style. Additionally there can be restrictions regarding accessories.

Prices vary greatly regarding your choice of dress. If you want a custom made designer dress you will be paying a lot more than by choosing one off the rack. The more fancy a dress tends to be the more money it will cost. You can save money by looking online and comparing prices.

Great deals can be found by purchasing a second hand dress. The eBay auction site offers a large number of gently worn dresses in many sizes. You can also find a good buy at garage sales. Stores at the local mall also sell dresses during the season and if you want to save money you can shop clearance for the following year.

The most popular styles for dresses are full length or tea length. The full length gowns can be compared to bridal gowns and will make your little girl look like a princess walking down the church aisle. Dresses known as tea length extend below the knee to about the middle of the calf. Both choices come in beautiful styles for the first Communicant.

Be sure to take accurate measurements so the dress fits properly. It only takes a few minutes to make sure of the proper size. Especially if you order online, measuring is very important to get the right fit.

While the dress may seem to be the most important item of the day, there are other accessories that add to the look. The veil is probably the most important and is often part of a tiara or jeweled crown. As the veil falls upon the shoulders of your little girl, it will give her a beautiful angelic look.

A jacket or shawl will keep her warm on a cooler day. Some girls prefer to wear socks and others like white tights but make sure the shoes fit comfortably so they do not get any blisters on their special days. Special jewelry is often worn and is normally kept as a special keepsake of the day.

First Holy Communion dresses are usually a very important part of this special day of celebration specially for little girls. It is a center point of a your daughters outfit and it can be as extravagant as you choose it be. Make sure the process of choosing the dress is fun as you both look forward to a memorable day n her life.
